K-Meleon is a light weight web browser for folks who don't need a ton of plugins, options, or much of anything except for a good utility for viewing web sites. The browser uses the same rendering engine as Firefox, so pretty much any page that you can access in Firefox can also be opened in K-Meleon. But don't expect your Firefox add-ons or Greasemonkey scripts to play nice with K-Meleon. ...

The Opera team has released the second public beta of Opera 9.5. The web browser packs all the features we've seen in earlier test builds like an improved tab manager, plus a bunch of new features and fixes. Here are just a few: Full text history search from the address field Spatial navigation highlighting similar to that used in Opera Mini 4 and Opera for the Nintendo Wii Opera can now ...

The first real, official, and honest to-goodness beta release of Firefox 3 is out. You know, not like that little false alarm pre-beta version we told you about a few weeks ago. Still, the main differences between this beta and that pre-release copy are that the Firefox team has spent a few more weeks hammering out bugs. The feature set is pretty much what we knew it would be. Updates to the ...

While it might not be quite as exciting as Firefox for mobile phones, MobileRead forum member Adam B has enabled web browsing on the iLiad eBook reader. It turns out the iLiad ships with a stripped down version of the Minimo web browser for reading HTML files. Out of the box, you can't browse the web with this version of Minimo. But Adam B has released an update that effectively unlocks Minimo on ...

Oh experimental applications, they grow up so quickly. It seems like just last week we were telling you about Mozilla WebRunner, a stripped down version of Firefox with no tabs or URL bar. And now WebRunner's all grown up and has a new name: Prism. OK, all grown up might be an overstatement. But Mozilla has outlined their goals for the simple web browser: to let you access web applications without ...

Opera's desktop web browser isn't the only browser getting an update today. Opera Mini 4 beta 3 is also out, and there are a ton of new features since beta 2. Support for Opera Link (synchronize your bookmarks and speed dial settings across multiple instances of Opera) Added Speed Dials Added RSS feed support Added shortcuts Images fit to screen better Page position and scaling ...

The folks behind the Opera web browser have launched a public beta of Opera 9.5 today. We kind of knew that was coming, but it's still nice to get a slightly more stable release of the updated web browser. Probably our favorite new feature is the full history search that lets you do a full text search covering every web site you've visited recently from the URL bar. Opera is has also launched ...

Updates are available for the Windows, Mac, and Linux/Unix versions of Opera. Opera is ...

While Mozilla, Microsoft, Opera, AOL, and others keep pushing out new web browsers with all the latest and greatest features, sometimes you need something a bit simpler. You know, like a web browser that can only open one page at a time, has no tabs, no sidebars, bookmarks, add-ons, or even a URL box. No, seriously. That's exactly what WebRunner is: the simplest web browser you've seen since... ...

Remember Netscape? No, not the social news/bookmark site. That's called Propeller now. We're talking about the web browser. We'll forgive you if you didn't realize the Netscape browser still existed. We forget sometimes ourselves, and we work for AOL, the company that owns Netscape. AOL has released the latest version of the Netscape browser. And while it's built on top of Firefox, it offers a ...

We've known Mozilla had big plans for the mobile space for a while now. But we were a bit disappointed when Mozilla announced their first major Mobile offering back in August. Joey is basically just a web clipping service that lets you save web content using your desktop Firefox browser and access it from any old mobile browser. We were hoping to see a mobile version of Firefox. Well, sometimes ...

If you've been beta testing the free version Opera Mobile 8.65 for Windows Mobile since March, it's time to pay up. Opera has officially released version 8.65 of the company's mobile browser, and it's totally worth the $24 asking price. If you haven't already checked Opera Mobile 8.65 out, there's a 30 day free trial download available as well. Opera Mobile includes a ton of features missing from ...

Every time you install a newer version of Internet Explorer, Windows has a tendency to overwrite previous versions. And generally, that's a good thing. You're missing out on an awful lot if you're using Internet Explorer 3 to browse the web these days. AJAX, Flash, and other newfangled features just aren't going to work as well, or at all. But if you're a developer and you want to see how your ...
